This free snapshot doesn't read filing or proxy text, so the auditor-quality and governance checks that can lower a grade were not evaluated (red flags, auditor quality, say on pay, board independence). Those checks only ever lower a grade, so the full analysis can land below the grade above but never above it — treat it as the most favourable reading, not the settled one.

Alico, Inc. earns a D (Weak — demands caution) forensic quality grade, and its balance-sheet distress test reads -0.3, placing it in the Distress zone. 3 forensic signals were flagged in its latest SEC filings, led by return on invested capital.

What the filings flag

-102.0%

FY2025

Return on invested capital. Return on invested capital is -102.0% in the latest fiscal year and slipping from -6% — well below its ~9% cost of capital, so reinvested dollars may be destroying value, not building it.

+0.3%/yr

FY2022–FY2025

Share count. Diluted share count changed +1% over the last 3 years to FY2025 (+0.3%/yr). Roughly flat — the count is neither shrinking nor growing meaningfully. Per-share value isn't being meaningfully helped or hurt by the count.

-69%

FY2023→FY2024

Dividend — cut. The payout was CUT ~69% in FY2024 (from FY2023). It still returns some cash, but it is NOT the dependable, rising dividend an unbroken streak implies.
